Boy, 5, dies after being left in Arkansas day care vehicle

A 6-year-old was found unresponsive inside a day care van in West Memphis, Monday afternoon.

Police in West Memphis said the child was picked up around 7 a.m. Monday to be dropped off at Ascent Medical Health Services, but he never made it out of the vehicle. There were at least two adults inside the van and Gardner was even signed into the day care while he remained in the van, the report added.

The news station notes that it is not clear why Christopher did not, or could not, get off the van.

Police in West Memphis, Arkansas say five-year-old boy is dead after being left alone for hours in hot van like this one from Ascent Children's Heath Services on June 12, 2017. By the time he was found at 3:30 p.m., Gardner was dead.

"You can see that my great-grandbaby was suffering in that van", Carrie Smith, Christopher's great-grandmother, told WMC.

"When he got off the van he'd say, 'Granny, have you got me a cookie today?'" Smith said. "They didn't look, and they can't tell me they looked", Smith said.

The temperature in West Memphis on Monday reached 88 degrees. But he said the temperature in an adjacent sealed van was recorded at 141 degrees.

Charges were not immediately filed in the case, but police said they are likely.

The former employee said she worked at the facility just six months ago, and it was common practice to check the vans three times after children were taken off the van.

She described him as a sweet child.

Officials with the Arkansas Department of Human Services, which regulates day care centers in Arkansas, were also investigating, police said.
